In other words, give up your digital privacy so Big Brother can take care of you. He’s here to help.

That's rich coming from a gay Muslim man who supports pedophile homosexuals who prey on young boys and Muslims who marry young girls and rape them...

Protection of secrets, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to encrypt information with private keys, shall not be infringed.
Yeah, I’m thinking it’s an absolute. The Founding Fathers would have enumerated it as such had they foreseen the government attempting to regulate “hard” encryption out of existence.

It’s okay for hildabeast to have privacy to give away government top secret information from a private server for money. It’s okay for a woman to kill her child - privacy, you know. It’s not okay for a serf to keep any information private from the government.

Is that the same Obama who grumped about giving up his BlackBerry upon taking office?

The Founding Fathers did not fight for security but for freedom. As a part of the might British Empire they had all the safety and security they could dream of.

If it isn’t absolute, then the amount of “non-absoluteness” is determined by government only. Which means there are no restrictions at all.

"What mechanism do we have available even to do simple things like tax enforcement?I have a question... How did we do all these things before we had cell phones? Have we forgotten real police work?

Whenever someone says “The Constitution says that Congress shall not infringe on the right to bear arms” liberals say that those people are fetishizing guns and the second amendment.
Whenever someone says “The Constitution says that the right of the people to be secure against unreasonable searches shall not be violated” liberals say that those people are fetishizing their smartphones and the forth amendment.
But whenever a liberal says “it’s not in the Constitution, but unlimited abortion must be defended at all costs in all situations” they are a Constitutional scholar and their opinion can not be discussed or opposed.

In other words; Give up your privacy, which was demanded when it was a woman’s “right” to an abortion, or queers right to “marry”.
